About BidZoo
BidZoo is a first-of-its-kind onlineauction marketplace built to modernize the traditional auction experience. Instead of selling items one at a time, all listings in a BidZoo auction are live simultaneously, allowing buyers to browse, follow, and bid across multiple items in real time.
We're an early-stage, founder-backed company with an established platform and a very small, highly involved team. We're building a marketplace that combines the excitement of live auctions with the accessibility and convenience of modern ecommerce.
About the Role
We're looking for a creative, outgoing, and highly hands-on Social Media Manager to take ownership of BidZoo's social media presence, grow our community, and help build excitement around our marketplace and live auctions.
This isn't just a role for someone who schedules posts or manages a content calendar. We want someone who genuinely enjoys social media, understands what makes people engage, and can come up with creative ideas and bring them to life.
You'll be responsible for developing content, helping create graphics and videos, engaging with our audience, working with influencers, and helping build BidZoo's brand personality.
We're also looking for someone comfortable being on camera and serving as a brand ambassador for BidZoo. You'll create and appear in videos, introduce products and auctions, share updates, and help put a recognizable personality behind our brand.
You'll work directly with our Performance Marketing Manager but have plenty of autonomy to develop ideas, experiment with content, and take ownership of day-to-day social media activities.
We're a fast-moving startup without a large marketing team or an established playbook. We need someone proactive, resourceful, organized, and excited to help build something from the ground up.

The Right Person
We're looking for someone who genuinely enjoys creating content and engaging with people.
You're comfortable being both behind and in front of the camera. You're creative, energetic, and willing to experiment. You don't need someone handing you a list of posts to create every week because you're already thinking about what could work next.
